The tectonic evolution of the Songpan-Garzê (North Tibet) and adjacent areas from Proterozoic to Present: A synthesis
The Triassic orogeny in North Tibet results from interactions between the South China, North
China and Qiangtang (North Tibet) blocks during the closure of the Paleotethys ocean. It is …

Mesozoic and Cenozoic tectonic history of the central Chinese Tian Shan: Reactivated tectonic structures and active deformation
The present‐day topography of the Tian Shan range is considered to result from crustal
shortening related to the ongoing India‐Asia collision that started in the early Tertiary. In this …

New Constraints on the Late Oligocene‐Miocene Thermo‐Tectonic Evolution of the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau From Low‐Temperature Thermochronology
Abstract The southeastern (SE) Tibetan Plateau (Yunnan) is characterized by low‐relief
uplands that were deeply incised by large rivers. The thermal history of basement rocks in …
